I don’t get it. Why are you putting your posts content inside one HUGE page instead of showing your old posts in, for example, Morgue category, listed as individual posts?
Try disabling all your plugins if the error persists. It might be caused by Jetpack. Are all your plugins updated to the latest versions?
Thanks, Media X. I’ve tried disabling Jetpack and that isn’t the problem, and all my plugins are updated.
Re your question about “one HUGE page” versus Morgue category, I cannot answer that because I don’t understand the significance of the question. My home page is NOT a blog, and I have a separate blog page (titled “first draft”).
Is the Morgue file getting too big; is that the problem? It’s only 31K words.
If I did what you are hinting at and established a Morgue category using the Menu option, would it still appear on the site’s main navigation bar on the home page? what would the page look like?
again, my url is http://www.vweisfeld.com
Have you deactivated ALL plugins and kept them off while troubleshooting this?
The Morgue page IS very long – takes a long time to load it.
You should also know that MANY other people are having the same “Connection Reset Error” with GoDaddy..
Yes, I have deactivated all my plug-ins. Is GoDaddy able to fix this for people? Do you have advice about what I should ask them to check for? I have been in contact with them, and they say there is no problem at their end. Wrong?
Thank you, WPyogi. I’ve passed my question on to GoDaddy, but don’t expect help. I looked at all the discussions you suggested (some I’d seen already), appreciate your trouble.
Let me reiterate:
1) web posting and changes to other static pages are unaffected
2) the problem ONLY occurs on “The Morgue” static page
3) I have not made any custom modifications to WP. Using it straight “out of the e-box.”
In that case, I’d agree with @media X – try making that page shorter – it IS quite long.
Morgue category using the Menu option, would it still appear on the site’s main navigation bar on the home page? what would the page look like?
Yes, you can add category items to a custom menu –

I finally bit the bullet and deleted the photos from some of my older content, thus decreasing the page size considerably. It now works perfectly again. I hadn’t seen any WP advice that there is an upper limit on page size, but apparently, there is.
Thanks to everyone who’s tried to diagnose the problem.
